The Peacock series will premiere in just a few months, and Pete's girlfriend will star alongside him.

Now that he's free from the Kardashian-Jenner media circus, Pete Davidson is back to enjoying his celebrity life with his new girlfriend. If there's one thing Davidson will do, it's date a Hollywood starlet. This time, he's happily in love with actress Chase Sui Wonders. The pair first met sometime in 2021 while working on Bodies Bodies Bodies, and later that year, Davidson sparked a romance with Kim Kardashian. However, that ended less than a year later. While Kardashian is back into her reality television chaos, Davidson is readying his next television project.

There have been murmurs about Davidson's film that's loosely based on his life. This morning (March 15), Deadline offered an update, as the comedy series Bupkis will arrive on Peacock in just a few months. The former Saturday Night Live comedian stars in the series and is also credited as co-writer and executive producer. Bupkis has drawn a comparison to Curb Your Enthusiasm, so a new generation will have a series much like that of Larry David's.

Pete Davidson Stars As...Himself

Bupkis is also rumored to push the boundaries of comedies, as Deadline shares it hosts R-rated comedy. This is, of course, an adaptation of real-life events that happened to Davidson, giving the world a fictionalized look into his daily life and upbringing. Chase Sui Wonders is set to star in the series as well; however, her role is unclear. Many have already begun speculating that she may be cast as Davidson's on-screen love interest. We'll have to wait and see how her character develops.

Meanwhile, the cast also includes several noteworthy actors. Edie Falco of The Sopranos fame will star as Davidson's mother, while Goodfellas icon Joe Pesci portrays his father. Ray Romano, Simon Rex, and Charlie Day are also set to make appearances. Davidson's SNL co-star Kenan Thompson will also lend his talents to Bupkis.

Romance Is Heating Up

While Davidson's romance with Kardashian was the subject of ongoing controversy, his relationship with Wonders is much different. To begin, there isn't an ex-husband giving him constant grief on social media. Additionally, Wonders doesn't have hoards of fans who issue threats. The couple is regularly photographed laughing and enjoying one another's company. He's keeping this relationship away from the public, seemingly learning his lesson. Check out the first images of Bupkis above and tune into the premiere on May 4.
